YTD 83-82-2 +1 Unit
Simply put I got annihilated gambling college football this past weekend. So many half point and single point losers on the sheet this week. I might as well be the OU of gambling on college football right now. Started hot and now I am getting run out of the damn building. 7-17 this past sheet brings me a lot of pain to type that. Not only because of my own financial losses on these bets, but because I try my best to give you winners as well. All we can do is put on a brave face and continue to march forward at this point though and try to get this train back on the tracks.
Sides YTD 47-50-1
Auburn vs Ole Miss (-14.5)
Auburn stinks. I am headed to the plains over halloween to watch the Arkansas-Auburn game. I would love for the Tigers to get smoked for the second week in a row and fire Brian Harsin this week. That way the interim will get them fired up for next week’s game and not when they play the hogs. This Ole Miss team is a frustrating team to bet on, because of the fact that you never can tell when the avalanche of points is gonna happen or if it will at all in any one game. I think Jaxon Dart turned a corner in the game at home vs Kentucky and I like Ole miss to lay it on Auburn at home in the Vaught.
Kansas (+9) vs Oklahoma
This line makes no sense to me to start. Oklahoma is not a great football team at the moment. I know Daniels is out for Kansas at QB, but the back up last week looked more than serviceable and in all honesty Kansas should have beat TCU. Dillion Gaberial also returns for OU at QB, but Oklahoma’s problems have mainly stemmed from their inability to play a single lick of defense and show physicality on that half of the ball. I love the Jayhawks in this one.
Miami (FL) (-7) vs Virginia Tech
This is the ACC where a lot of bad football teams lay their head down at night. I think VA Tech is simply much worse than this Miami squad. Cristobal has to get something figured out this season and this is his chance to steady the ship for the Hurricanes in Blacksburg.
Alabama vs Tennessee (+7)
The Vols enter this matchup having lost to the tide 15 straight seasons. I am not sure that streak ends up on Rocky Top this saturday, but I’m fairly certain Hendon Hooker is gonna keep the Vols in this game down to the wire. I love watching this Tennessee team play offense. I am curious to see what Bryce Young looks like coming back this week from injury. Bryce’s status will determine this game. I think the atmosphere in Neyland will be borderline erotic and I hope the Volunteer faithful can be set free at least for one year from the death grip Nick Saban has had over the state of Tennessee.
Wisconsin (-8) vs Michigan State
The people in charge of hiring in East Lansing may have made a mistake in giving Mel Tucker all that money to coach the Spartans. They are a very bad football team. I like some of the things the badgers showed us last week and I think they will go on a mini run the rest of October. I like the Badgers to beat State soundly.
Tulane (-12) vs USF
The green wave have taken their talents on the road a few times already this year and come home with wins. I like Tulane to go down to Tampa and take care of the bulls in this one.
Clemson (-3.5) vs Florida State
A night game in Tallahassee is never a fun place to play as a road favorite. I now think this clemson team will make the playoff as an undefeated ACC champ. How good are they actually when matched up against top teams I’m not sure, but I know they are good enough to cover this line for us saturday night.
USC vs Utah -3.5
The exact same line the Utes had last week in LA vs UCLA a game which they lost outright. Maybe Utah is not that good, but up in the mountains at home against a USC team that maybe kinda candy ass. I am going to ride with Utah one more time.
Totals YTD 36-32-1
Baylor vs West Virginia (Over 55)
Little early night thursday action for you to wet the beak to start the weekend need to win this one bad to get the vibes good for this week.
Penn State vs Michigan (Over 51)
This is a game I think where the under could be looking like the pick maybe 55 min out of 60. When these teams are close down the stretch they are gonna real off like 24 points matching possessions to take the lead. Old your nose and take it the Over is the right pick here.
Charlotte vs UAB (Over 63.5)
The 49ers come back from their bye week this and hopefully for all of us they still haven’t learned how to stop anybody. This game will be wide open. Points, Points, Points
NC State vs Syracuse (Under 42)
If Devin Leary is in fact out for the Wolf Pack I am not sure at all how they move the ball in this one. Add in the carrier dome and a hopefully enthused crowd I think this game could be quite sloppy.
Wisconsin vs Michigan State (Over 49.5)
As pointed out earlier this state team stinks especially on defense. This one like all Big 10 overs maybe a struggle but I like these teams to work out a deal to get us to 50 points.
LSU vs Florida (Over 50.5)
CHAOS. Thats the one thing I can guarantee when these squads
